Kato, I have known you almost as long as I have my own dogs ( longer than one of them ) and I love you as if you were my own. You will be with us forever, in every rainbow, in every stream of sunshine, in every breeze. You will live forever in our hearts. Thank you for loving my friend as much as she loved you.

There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

Oh Dee, I am so sorry. I know how painful it was to make this decision and follow through with it. For me, knowing it was "the right thing to do" didn't give me much comfort in the beginning, but after some time passed, it did. For now, I hope you find comfort in your memories and in knowing that you gave him a great life. Kato was a very lucky boy to have found someone who loved him so much. And I know he loved you just as much.

He will always be a part of you in your heart, and he will live on through your memories. He is running like a pup now at the Bridge, with the wind in his ears and soft grasses under his paws. Probably finding peanut butter and bully sticks at every turn.

I am so, so sorry.

"When we love with all of our heart, we grieve with all of our heart."

Dee, I haven't posted to this until now because I just don't know what to say. CC said things very eloquently.I wish I had been here from the beginning, but happy I could be here for you now. Kato truly has touched many lives and will continue to do so. He lives on in you and in all of us as well. I am sending you loving, warm, healing thoughts.

Dee, my heart is breaking for you. I don't really know you and I never met Kato but I've seen his photos and could feel your love for each other through your posts. I have no words that can ease your pain but know my thoughts are with you.

Thank you for all your kind words, my friends. They are truly helping me get through this. The love I've gotten from all of you washes over me & takes away some of the pain. I couldn't ask for better friends & family than my PBT dog crazy sisters & brothers. I love you all
